Coaching as a tool for personnel development
Coaching is an effective personnel development tool. Companies are increasingly seeing it as a sensible investment and using it on an ongoing basis as a process supporting measure particularly for employees in leadership positions. Numerous surveys and studies confirm the success of coaching employees in technical and social skills. Coaching has the following advantages:
- Neutral, independent and discreet
- Situation specific
- Successful transfer into practice
Successful transfer into practice
Coaching is the best way of ensuring that the knowledge gained is put into practice as the participant works on his or her real-life personal challenges, brings these into the process and is therefore motivated to bring about changes. Reflections on how to translate the learnings into practice play a key role in coaching: The issues discussed are examined on an ongoing basis and their transfer into practice is evaluated, reviewed and rectified as necessary.
